G/F Hiding their C/E shame behind G7 hollow C laughter
While C/E you are F crying D7/F♯ alone on your G bed
C Pity Cassandra that F no one C believed you
But then G/B again you were Am lost from the G start
G/F Now we must C/E suffer and F/A sell our C/G secrets
F6 Bargain, G playing Am smart, Dm7 aching G in our C hearts
(CHORUS) Sorry Cassandra I G7 misunderstood
Now the last day is C dawning
Some of us wanted but G7 none of us could
Listen to words of C warning
But on the darkest of E nights
Nobody Am knew how to E fight
And we were caught in our Am sleep
Sorry Cassandra I G7 didn't believe
You really had the C power
I only saw it as G7 dreams you would weave
Until the final C hour
(VERSE) So in the morning your ship will be sailing
Now that your father and sister are gone
There is no reason for you to linger
You're grieving deeply but still moving on
You know the future is casting a shadow
No one else sees it but you know you're fate
Packing your bags, being slow and thorough
Knowing, though you're late, that ship is sure to wait

(VERSE) I watched the ship leaving harbour at sunrise
Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain
She stood on deck, just a tiny figure
Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain
